Another idea discussed but rejected was given to me by one of the artists during the art show. He suggested that the Museum hire an attractive woman to model nude for the artists. The site for the pose could be at the end of the property near the highway. After pursuing this idea fervently fervently on behalf of the art community, the idea was rejected.

I'd like to thank at this time the editor of this paper for publishing my weekly write-ups, which have upon one or two occasions been in a little over the deadline. Without Without their, support I'm not sure if the Museum would have had as many visitors as it did. I'd also like to give a special thanks to all the people who volunteered their time and effort to help me with one or more of my projects. Without their help the events would not have been as successful as they were. . Overall, the summer has been pretty good, one that will be remembered by me.
